"Michael Isikoff was just on Greta. He said that this guy had been detained secretly."

Is Isikoff the guy that lost his hand in Iraq when he picked up a grendae that had been tossed into the truck he was riding in, and threw it out the window?

Brave man, if that is he.

No. That was Michael Weisskopf, of Time magazine.

But, don't feel bad. Larry King confused them, too:

KING: How are you doing physically?
ISIKOFF: I'm doing fine.
KING: Well, you lost what...
ISIKOFF: Why do you ask?
KING: Because you were injured.
ISIKOFF: No, no, no. I'm sorry. You're thinking of my -- of Michael Weisskopf [of] Time magazine.

Although, I seem to recall Larry King saying "Well, you lost something, right?"

Actually, it that was a guy named Weiskopf from Time Magazine who had his hand blown off.

Isakoff is the quite the opposite of brave. He and his editors did not have the the stones to print the Lewinsky story when it broke. Drudge stepped and broke the story.
